25th Anniversary Team

Last weekend was suppose to be a big one. Our home opener and the celebration of 25 years of St. Scholastica Softball. Again, the weather gods did not cooperate so instead of a great weekend of softball and celebration it was a grueling weekend of snow removal.

But neither snow, wind or rain will deter us. We can still celebrate our 25 years of softball and to do so we have named our Silver Anniversary Team.
